Ribbons are always a fabulous touch. Ribbons, Twines and Trims can be used for SO many different crafting purposes. And in my humble opinion, Really Reasonable Ribbon is truly the BEST place to find the variety of colors, widths, designs, styles and types of trims for all your crafting needs. It's not often that I don't include some type of trim on my cards. However......did you know that Really Reasonable Ribbon also carries essential items like Adhesives and 3-D Foam Tabs? They really have a vast variety of crafting products.
I used basic cream cardstock for the base of my card. I layered that with patterned papers from my stash including some old October Afternoon papers, stickers and an ephemera card. I tied some rather long lengths of Baker's Twine around my card and tied a bow with it. Really Reasonable Ribbon carries both Solid and Striped Baker's Twines. On this card, I used Cherry Baker's Twine and Solid Mint Baker's Twine to match my papers.
I used lots of fabulous Scor-Tape Adhesive to attach everything and hold it securely in place. I used a cute die-cut from Paper Sweeties to cut my "Christmas cookie for Santa". I cut it out of cardboard, and it's layered with 3-D Foam Tabs, and then the center is filled with red glitter to represent jelly or frosting in the center of the cookie. The tiny iced coffee image is also very old, and it's from V's Sweet Ideas.
You can find lots of great inspiration on the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog, and that's where you'll also stay up-to-date about special sales and promotions taking place in the RRR Store. You'll always find the best selection of Ribbons, Trims, Twines, Adhesives, Embellishments, Mulberry Flowers and much more at Really Reasonable Ribbon. There's also still time to SAVE during the Labor Day SALE. Details are on the Blog. Thanks so much for stopping by to take a peek and say hello. I'm always grateful.
